How to test your SSL setup with Python

1- Install Selenium

pip install -U selenium

2- Download Firefox from here and exract it next to your Test file:

Download Firefox for Linux
Download Firefox for Windows
You can find all Firefox releases from here

3- Create a GoogleSSLSetupTest.py file and paste this code ( This is your test file ):

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options

EXE_PATH = r'geckodriver.exe'
options = Options()

options.headless = True
driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=EXE_PATH, options=options)

driver.get('http://google.com')

url = driver.current_url

if url.startswith("https://"):
        print "Pass"
else:
        print "Failed"

driver.quit()

The code above will test that we have been redirected successfully to a secure HTTPS connection when we request a none secure HTTP connection.

How to run the test

python GoogleSSLSetupTest.py

If the test successe it will print out Pass, else it will print Failed.
